2017

Bob is a recovering lawyer and astonishingly mediocre athlete. Bob discovered premium indoor cycling while living in New York, and gained a deep appreciation for its immense health benefits--turning Bob from a fat guy into a skinny guy. Alas, Bob gets bored easily and finds riding a bike in a dark room agonizing. This led Bob and his team to create Steel Wheels to ensure fitness would never be boring again.

Tracy was born and raised in St. Louis, but her work as an architect lead her to California. She spent 10 years in California where she discovered her love of biking, which eventually drew her to teach at DNA Spin Studio in Ventura, CA. She joined the Steel Wheels team in Feb 2018 and has loved getting to know the Steel Wheels family and being a part of the studio. Tracy enjoys road biking and mountain biking and especially likes the high energy group rides of an indoor cycling class. Tracy is a Mad Dogg Certified Spin Instructor and believes Spinning should be fun, but also inspire one to push their limits. She keeps the challenge of the ride present and encourages everyone to make each class their best ride yet.

Erica is originally from Tampa, Florida (Go Gators), she worked as a Fitness Supervisor at the campus recreation center. She has also taught indoor cycling classes at studios in both Tampa and Birmingham. When it comes to indoor cycling, it was love at first pedal! There's nothing better than turning the lights down low, turning up the music and getting lost in the ride. Erica is so excited to be a part of Steel Wheels and can't wait to see you on the bike!

Kelly is so excited to be on the Steel Wheels Team! She works in IT sales during the day, but cannot wait to share another passion with the clients of Steel Wheels after her 9 to 5. She plans an international trip every year, enjoys everything in Forest Park, and spends way too much time at the movies. She is a resident of Brentwood, but cannot wait to spend a little time in the Central West End.

This 2017 year in review contains a good amount of climbing, which is relatively moderate until the final steep hill. Occasional sprints are done at a light to moderate resistance, but for longer periods of time.
